How do we make our financial agreement legally binding?

To make the agreement legally binding, you need to include the terms of the financial agreement into a formal legal document called a  Consent Order. The Consent Order is then sent to the Court dealing with the divorce or dissolution. Once the Consent Order is reviewed and approved by a Judge, the agreement will become legally binding and enforceable in law. 

A Judge will only approve a financial agreement if they consider it fair. If the Judge finds the agreement unfair, they may request changes or further explanations.
